I bought this used protein skimmer but it has a ton of calcium (I assume) build up. It there a way to remove the black top to get out the central cylander to clean it?

Welcome to the board ablincoln01! You always have to take into consideration that advise from lfs doesn't help them pay the bills. They need to sell you something to keep the lights on. Now that the cycle has started, do what you are doing now while things are settling down. Read, ask...
